Futtocks 12,291 Report post Posted January 25 I couldn't see an existing thread, so here goes. Wigan St Pats v West Hull kicked off a few minutes early, and the BBC live stream's a little blocky for me. Currently 0:0. Still, come on you Greens!

Futtocks 12,291 Report post Posted January 25 Just now, EssexRL said: Of course no sooner do I say that than St Pats score! Still correct, though. West Hull look much more coherent and savvy. 2 Quote "Men will be proud to say 'I am a European'.

The Hallucinating Goose 1,545 Report post Posted January 25 Brilliant game so far. These amateur games are always incredibly brutal and full of passion. I really enjoy these early challenge cup rounds. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like the way these early cup matches ease us into the new season; it's a reminder of what the game is all about. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is a level of the sport that many have never seen before. 1 Quote "Men will be proud to say 'I am a European'.

The Hallucinating Goose 1,545 Report post Posted January 25 What a great game that was, very proud of my team, let's hope we get a good tie in the next round, playing like that we can give any league 1 team a decent game! I don't know what others think but these challenge cup games are a lot more exciting that a lot of Super League games are. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
